Letter: Deceptive Bush hides behind U.S. soldiers

Friday, March 2, 2007 | 7:11 a.m.

I seem to recall all the touting about the cowardly Palestinians using their own people to hide behind during the Israeli attacks. This was done to make it look like the Israelis were out to kill civilians.

Now we have a cowardly leader in President Bush using the same technique. He is hiding behind his own soldiers to send more money and bodies to Iraq, trying to make it look like Congress, not the president, would be responsible for the loss of more American lives if they were to cut off additional funds.

Well, let us give him credit. Deception is about the only thing he is really good at. He even has himself confused.
